Evidence for ferroaxial order in 1T-TiSe via elastoresistivity measurements

Qianni Jiang, Ezra Day-Roberts, Benito Gonzalez +5

The study of spontaneous symmetry breaking and electronic order is fundamental in condensed matter physics. Hidden order, symmetry-breaking states that elude conventional probes, p…

Ferroaxial and nematic transitions in the charge density wave phase of 1T-TiSe

Sarah Edwards, Elliott Rosenberg, Ilaria Maccari +9

Charge density waves (CDWs) with multi-component order parameters can break unexpected symmetries through the interplay of nearly degenerate instabilities. In the widely investigat…

Discovery of spontaneous mesoscopic strain waves in nematic domains using dark-field X-ray microscopy

Kaan Alp Yay, W. Joe Meese, Elliot Kisiel +5

Electronic nematic order is a correlated phase of matter in which low-energy electronic states spontaneously break a discrete rotational symmetry of a crystal lattice. Bilinear cou…

Theory of Electronic Nematic Criticality Constrained by Elastic Compatibility

W. Joe Meese, Rafael M. Fernandes

The defining property of electronic nematicity -- the spontaneous breaking of rotational symmetry -- implies an unavoidable coupling between the nematic order parameter and elastic…

Compatible Instability: Gauge Constraints of Elasticity Inherited by Electronic Nematic Criticality

W. Joe Meese, Rafael M. Fernandes

Electronic nematicity is widely observed in quantum materials with varying degrees of electronic correlation, manifesting through charge, spin, orbital, or superconducting degrees…

Microscopic origin of the nemato-elastic coupling and dynamics of hybridized collective nematic-phonon excitations

Morten H. Christensen, Michael Schütt, Avraham Klein +1

Electronically-driven nematic order breaks the rotational symmetry of a system, e.g., through a Pomeranchuk instability of the Fermi surface, with a concomitant distortion of the l…

Charge order-driven nematicity in the nickel-pnictide superconductor BaSrNiAs

Thomas Johnson, Camille Bernal-Choban, Sangjun Lee +8

Nematic order refers to the spontaneous breaking of rotational symmetry while preserving translational symmetry. First identified in classical liquid crystals, nematic order arises…
